(MIN) News

You are correct. I guess not only I, but many other investors misinterpreted it as well when Robert mentioned it takes up to 2 years to get the permit amended for open pit. I have confirmed with the company that ISR and well stimulation are still the plan.

Open pit is in the latest corporate presentation for June 2024

Pretty sure you misinterpreted the webinar Q&A. Someone asked if Gunnison could be operated via traditional open pit and Excelsior responded hypothetically they could (if permits are received) but also stated this was not in their plans. Please correct me if I'm wrong if this was stated firmly elsewhere and not hypothetically. It was simply a response to a random question.

Or a good time to get cheap shares for a very long wait until in-suitu is actually producing.

Every dollar counts for Excelsior. I hope 1) Copper prices stay high long enough; and 2) JCM proceeds as planned without any screwups.

They need revenue anywhere they can find it. Without Gunnison back on line, this could be a long wait.

I can't tell. There are many uncertainties about Gunnison now that they have brought open pit mining back to the table. JCM is the focus at the moment, even though most shareholders are not in favor of it. Patience is needed more than ever; this is not a good time to exit.

Can you tell how long they expect Gunnison to be shut down and when they will start work to fix the issues.

Guess someone is pissed by yesterday's presentation and dumped his shares today.

Right, but the income will be used to payback Nuton's capex, after paying royalties and streams.

Not very exciting. Would have liked more info about the in-suitu progress.

Well at least they seem to have a chance to generate some revenue from the JC now.

How do you folks like today's webinar?

Another 12 month to start test the fracting tech with gunnison? Lol

Go to the Greenstone website. I pulled this straight from it: Greenstone not only provides capital but helps with "all aspects of project development (not just ‘hard’ technical issues such as geology, mining and processing)" and also this - Greenstone helps with "project management and execution plans;"
Management is doing the best possible, they cannot magically fix the geology. Greenstone is satisfied with their work
and must have some control over the direction of the project, so they can't really complain. So that is the reason.

Greetings Bag Holders I hope on Tuesday one caller can get this question into the discussion. WHY ...is this J Ass .. and the whole management team been not been TERMINATED !!!! As I said in a previous post .. If this was a NBA, NHL, MLB, NFL franchise these fuckers would have been TOAST ... Years ago. My God .... How are they still here ???????

he-he-he........Sheesh.....Excelsior !

Your suggestion makes sense then.

Read the meeting circular available through your broker when you go to vote. Greenstone would buy based on current market prices, but not on the open market.

The current trading volume is so low, are you sure we need to worry about Greenstone buying from the open market? No one is buying now, and not many ppl are selling either. Any buying power would easily push the share price up.

I have been in since 2014, usually post on stockhouse, but of course I follow investorshub and ceo.ca.

I am posting here because I think item four that we have to vote on is important. I think we should vote NO on item 4 allowing Greenstone to convert their accrued interest early. (I think they can convert their principal early, but that doesn't matter, it is at a fixed price)

Allowing them to convert the interest early instead of September 30, 2026, lets Greenstone buy at the current depressed stock price and lets them get over 50% of the company, i.e. control.

Greenstone is not allowed to vote on this, so our vote matters. Sure, management recommends approval, but what else can they do without upsetting Greenstone.
I see no advantage to us to let Greenstone convert the accrued interest now. In case you care, I have 700,000 shares, and every vote helps.

I've been an investor for close to nine years now in EXMGF. Unfortunately, this stock is going nowhere until Gunnison proves out. And that is still years away, in my opinion. The activities at JCM will have no positive effect on the stock price as any meaningful results from the Nuton application is also at least a year or two out. The only real positives are first, establishing the relationship with Rio Tinto and second, the coming worldwide shortage of copper. We are faced with a decision: either get out or load up and hope for the best.

Years ago, I sold shares of $BIR, $CVE, $PEY, $CCO, and $DML that were worth millions and put most of the money into $MIN. Now, the stocks I sold have tripled or quadrupled, and $MIN... well, you guys know the story... Sometimes, I just can't understand the board and management of Excelsior. Stephen the CEO holds more than 7 million shares; shouldn't he work harder for the company for his own good? And Greenstone, as the biggest shareholder, shouldn't they do something to fix the disappointing and costly management?

Well this pubco has a remote chance. But meanwhile the management team and other employees have been sluts and whores with their bloated salaries for part time work. It is sickening how they just convert other peoples into their own money. You earn large while pickleballing SW. Proud of that?

Excelsior webinar is scheduled on Tuesday, June 4

https://www.amvestcapital.com/webinar-directory/excelsiormining060424

That would be a nice gesture. I am guessing that once they are able to fix the issue at Gunnison, Excelsior will be a takeover target with copper on the move. The outfit in London will have the final say.

JCM, in my view, is just a side story to Excelsior. It's great that they have this relationship with Rio Tinto which, hopefully, will grow over time and result in Rio taking a JV interest in Gunnison.

Stock price has hit a short term ceiling . Gunnison is now in focus. The future of the company depends on them restarting the mine.

Excelsior Mining Announces Receipt of US$5 Million Payment Under Terms of Option Agreement with Nuton.

https://www.newsfilecorp.com/release/210121/

you are correct.

I think many investors do not understand the impact of this news.

A webinar can help .

That would be great to hear.

I heard the company will be doing a webinar to discuss Nuton and Gunnison shortly.

This company is all about getting Gunnison going again. The news yesterday gives MIN the right to use the funds in whatever they choose to do. Once you see Gunnison back on track, then the share price will act accordingly. Just not sure if the fix is one year or more.

Why does this news have ZERO effect on share price??? Mutha Fuc%$#@

That is 100% correct and I affirmed that with the company. The whole ball of wax is Gunnison. Hoping they can resolve their problems and then Rio makes a bid for the company.

Investors may have underestimated today's news from Excelsior ($MIN.TO, $EXMGF). The key point not mentioned in the news is that Excelsior now has the funds to proceed with the well stimulation test at Gunnison.

Excelsior Mining Announces Option Agreement with Nuton, a Rio Tinto Venture Proceeds to Stage 2

Phoenix, Arizona--(Newsfile Corp. - May 15, 2024) - Excelsior Mining Corp. (TSX: MIN) (OTCQB: EXMGF) (FSE: 3XS) ("Excelsior" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that Nuton LLC ("Nuton"), a Rio Tinto venture has elected to proceed to Stage 2 of the existing Option Agreement (the "Agreement") (see Excelsior press release dated July 31, 2023). The purpose of the Agreement is for Nuton to evaluate the use of its Nuton™ copper heap leaching technologies at Excelsior's Johnson Camp mine in Cochise County, Arizona. Under the Agreement, Excelsior remains the operator and Nuton funds Excelsior's costs associated with a two-stage work program at Johnson Camp.

As Nuton has elected to proceed to Stage 2, it will make a US$5 million payment to Excelsior for the use of existing infrastructure at the Johnson Camp mine for the Stage 2 work program. Nuton will also be responsible for funding all of Excelsior's costs associated with Stage 2. The full Stage 2 work program is anticipated to take up to five years, and, if successful, will demonstrate key elements of the Nuton technologies at industrial scale. It will proceed based on milestones related to engineering and mobilization, infrastructure and construction, mining, leaching, copper production and post-leach rinsing. Mining is expected to commence in year one with first Nuton copper produced in 2025.

The completion of all milestones would result in full scale commercial production of Nuton copper over several years at Johnson Camp. Revenue from operations will first be used to pay back Stage 2 costs to Nuton and will then be credited to Excelsior's account after fulfillment of Excelsior's applicable royalty and stream obligations.

"Nuton is providing state-of-the-art technologies to maximize copper recoveries. We look forward to positive results from these clean copper technologies as we develop our Johnson Camp mine," said Fred DuVal, Chairman of Excelsior.

Rio Tinto has developed the NutonTM technologies, an extensive portfolio of advanced copper heap leaching technologies targeted at primary sulfide minerals (including lower grade mineral deposits), which could not otherwise be processed economically using traditional leaching or sulfide processing technologies. These technologies offer the potential to produce additional copper from new and ongoing operations in a cost-effective manner that has significant environmental benefits when compared with traditional primary sulfide processing technologies.

After the completion of Stage 2, Nuton will have the right to form a joint venture on Johnson Camp per mutually agreeable terms whereby Nuton will hold an initial 49% and Excelsior an initial 51% interest. The purpose of the joint venture is to continue the development of the Johnson Camp mine using Nuton technologies. Should Nuton not exercise its joint venture rights, Nuton and Excelsior will discuss in good faith Excelsior's continued use of the Nuton technologies at the Johnson Camp mine subject to certain licensing terms and conditions. The infrastructure arrangement at Johnson Camp under this Agreement is non-exclusive. During Stage 2, Excelsior may continue to use the Johnson Camp infrastructure for processing Gunnison solutions and other copper sources not related to the Stage 2 work program so long as capacity requirements for the Stage 2 work program are met.

I am hoping sometime this month with Nuton.This is dragging on way too long. Need their funding to get Gunnison going ands that is the whole ballgame. I wish Rio would just buy us.

Likely news coming (Nuton JCM deal) + strong copper price (implying better terms for Excelsior in the deal)

Up 20% today Nice Volume.... Any Thoughts ?

same here, but if we get a nice move with copper and Biden shutting down big projects coupled with shortage, we have a shot at a nice return. Holding 127,500 shares bought over the past couple years with profit from other deals.. Worth a shot and has a good story..

No winners in this stock and that is for sure if you held all the way down. Just wait for the Nuton news on Johnson which will hopefully be out by June 2024.

Every one of my holdings is a hope and pray.

Guess news is coming soon. Stay tuned. My average cost is $0.62, not proud of that, lol.

Nobody have anything ?? WTF why so quiet ? my avg is .94 Nothing to be that exited about but .......

The next update should cover Nuton's deal with JCM. Hopefully, it's coming soon, and we will hear some positive news.

I have a feeling something is going to happen soon.

Yea last few weeks more shares sitting on the bid and wee bit of green starting to show.

EXMGF showing signs of life. Good news coming?

They cannot get Gunnison restarted fast enough. A lot depends on Johnson though and that decision should come in Qtr. 2.
